104 posts
For 63 years, Putney Student Travel has offered students completing Grades 6-12 the opportunity and insight to shape their world through travel, unique cultural engagement, friendship, and fun. We believe that an essential component of every young person’s education is passionate engagement with the world in the company of carefully selected peers, an experience that goes far beyond looking out the window of a tour bus.
